Palm Beach Detective
|
|
Speculating on death in Palm Beach. An insurance
salesman buys a policy on your life which he later sells and you
split the profit. Seemed like a no brainer until Frank learns
that other buyers are dying. He calls his friend Tony, an
insurance detective, for help. Sensing his best friend and
mentor is in danger; Tony flies to Palm Beach and meets Frank at
the Palm Beach Grill. While at the bar listening to Frank’s
story Tony flirts with the image of an attractive brunette in
the mirror. "His eyes slowly followed the line of her bare
shoulder down the smooth tanned arm, stopping briefly at the
bent elbow to enjoy her narrow waist, than up again past two
plain gold bracelets to the long slim fingers playing with her
hair. No ring. There was both sensuousness and class in this
well-groomed woman’s hands.” Enjoying his interest she smiles a
reply, but before he can approach her she disappears. While
searching for Frank’s potential killer, Tony visits the homes
and haunts of the rich and famous, always with an eye out for
the woman in the mirror, only to find she may be tied to the
people who will benefit from the $4,000,000 on Frank’s life. "A
ghoulish gamble for investors. The sooner the policyholder dies
the more profit they make." -Matthew Goldstein's Business Week

About Erik Brown
|
A successful, but in no way typical, life
insurance salesman turned writer, Erik Brown has
found his niche. His first book, The Death of Life
Insurance, detailed the rampant abuses prevalent in
the marketing of life insurance. In fact, it was so
detailed, he was not permitted to publish it without
giving up his licenses for fear of law suits. Palm
Beach detective takes one of the insurance
industries abuses, insuring people for pure
speculation, and shows what could happen when taken
to the extreme. It takes place in Palm Beach where
Erik is an active participant in the local scene. He
spends his summers in Marblehead, Massachusetts, his
home until he moved and became a resident of Palm
Beach.
